Amazing and inspirational book,
By
This review is from: The Great Big Veg Challenge: How to get your children eating vegetables happily (Paperback)
The U.K. is in a precarious situation at this very moment. Never has our nation been so confused about food yet ironically, never have we had so much food literally thrown into our faces, especially via the growing army of TV chefs. As somebody who teaches thousands of children how to eat everything in moderation, with emphasis on the fruit and vegetable, I feel I have a right to say I'm on the frontline. And it is scary.
What Charlotte Hume has done with this book is grab the very ethos of what food should be; simple, delicious, fun and less intimidating for children. An A-Z of vegetables with superb, easy to achieve and non-egotistical recipes, access for all. It really is that good. If you are somebody with family, or you are somebody yourself, who seem to be for some reason scared of vegetables, or even if you are somebody who claims to know it all, please check out this book. For somebody at the end of their tether trying to get her son to eat vegetables, it proves that with a bit of time, patience and the passion to feed her family properly, it can be done no matter how high the obstacle. And now you can have access to the miracles that made it happen. I cannot recommend it high enough. Absolutely bleedin' brilliant - well done!

Forget meat and two veg..........,
This review is from: The Great Big Veg Challenge: How to get your children eating vegetables happily (Paperback)
I bought this book hoping for new ideas about what to feed the kids, and I'm delighted with the results. It's absolutely packed full of recipes and, while it covers some of the more exotic vegetables, it's also got plenty of suggestions for new ways of making the old favourites more appealing. But what I like best about the book is the fact that these really are dishes which the whole family can enjoy - the adults are as happy eating them as the kids. I have a fussy four year old who, much to our amazement, has happily munched through sweet potatoes with a spicy dressing, and this has kickstarted us into encouraging her to try more new tastes. So I wholeheartedly recommend this book - and it's a good read too!

Good but....,
By natalie (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Great Big Veg Challenge: How to get your children eating vegetables happily (Paperback)
I love the concept of this book and I think it's genius... however, I still think there could have been more *regular* recipes in there that incorporate these vegetables. Reason being - I have had this book for months and months and still haven't made a single thing from it! :/ I think it's also probably good for older kids, who will at least pick up the vegetables... for example, my toddler wouldn't dare touch a bit of asparagus, let alone put it in his mouth. But once you can turn it into an adventure and explain why they should eat vegetables etc etc, (and perhaps go through the whole book together!) I'm sure it would be far easier to use.
